HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ACCENT CHAIR FOR EVERY ROOM

What Makes a Great Accent Chair?

The perfect combination of ergonomic comfort and timeless style has defined our bestselling modern accent chairs since we started in 1989. Our skilled artisans put great care into sustainably handcrafting them in our North Carolina factory to create heirloom-quality chairs you can pass down in the family.

Remember that much of what makes a chair beloved and long lasting is what’s on the inside. You can feel it in the sit of our chairs, which are always luxuriously padded.

In our expansive collection, you’ll find many beautiful contemporary chairs for every room and interior style. Whether you’re adding to existing furniture or starting from scratch, here’s what you need to know to choose wisely and enjoy the experience of personalizing your chairs.

Find Your Accent Chair Type

Consider what types of chairs will suit your spaces. Along with living areas, consider accent chairs for bedrooms and home offices. A few of our favorites:

  • Swivel Chairs: smart options for open-plan living/dining areas or for a family room – face the flat screen or turn toward the sofa for conversation. Our large collection of swivels offers many aesthetics, from mid century and 1970s styles to tradition with a twist.
  • Modern Recliners: Sophisticated updates for contemporary living without sacrificing comfort. Great casual choice for TV watching in the family room.
  • Petite Pull-Up Chairs: Scaled to easily be moved into a conversation area when needed. Also good for bedrooms and compact spaces.
  • Club Chairs & Armchairs: Comfortable, timeless, and inviting, these favorite modern living room chairs convey the warmth of home. Many mid-century accent chairs are in this category. And modern leather chairs in these styles add richness to an interior.
  • Wing Chairs: A sheltering feel and tall back for resting your head. Choose a clean-lined Scandinavian-inspired update of this classic style in a solid fabric for a modern look.
  • Armless Chairs: Comfy modern seating that doesn’t overwhelm a space. A place for two to perch at parties.
  • Chair & 1/2s: Some chairs hold a special place in memory. This is one of them, made for moments like curling up to read with a child or snuggling with a pet.

Tips from Our Designers: How to Style Your Accent Chairs

  • When pairing a chair with a sofa, look for a similar scale but different shape for a contrast that adds interest: chairs with curves or dressmaker details with clean-lined modern sofas, for example.
  • Accent chairs with wood or metal trim are great for coordinating with other pieces, from a Mid Century coffee table to a 70s-inspired console
  • Mix seating types within a room to give options. If the sofa is made for lounging on movie nights, a few upright chairs for conversation with company will be appreciated.
  • Create an intimate entertaining space: Place four modern armchairs around a coffee table.
  • Make a luxury design statement. A chair with sculptural lines can be the focal point of a room, especially when dressed in a rich color or eye-catching pattern.
  • Add chairs in pairs. Put two with a sofa to create a balanced setting. Set a pair by a fireplace for a more intimate seating area within a larger room.
  • Add benches  opposite your chairs. In a large seating area, instead of two accent chairs on each side of a sofa, put a comfortable upholstered bench on one side to vary the look.

Time to Customize: Fabric or Leather?

With 400+ fabrics and 40+ Italian and vegan leathers, our luxury textile collection lets you create unique looks for your fabric accent chairs and leather accent chairs. (Order free swatches) What textile to select for your accent chair depends on the style of the room and what activities take place there. For instance, we offer many easy-care performance fabrics from velvets to chenilles to linens as well as performance leathers for worry-free living with kids and pets as well as elegant options for more formal spaces. Also note these additional ways to personalize:

  • Create a two-fabric design with our inside/outside option.
  • Choose contrasting welt to highlight a chair’s shape.
  • Select from multiple finishes for wood- or metal-leg chairs.

Working with MG+BW Home’s talented in-store and virtual Designers—in our stores, in your home, or online—can help you get the look and feel you desire. (Book a complimentary design appointment)

Create Your Own Cozy Corner

Give yourself the gift of a comfortably furnished reading or meditation spot. Start with an accent chair you love that fits you: Does it hug your back? Is the depth right for you? Augment it with favorite companion pieces:
